At Jim Van Dyke in Washington CH, we understand that safety is a top priority for many drivers. Here’s a list of some of the safest cars on the market.
Vehicle safety becomes important in unpredictable situations. Since there is a wide array of such situations that may present themselves, safety can be determined in a multitude of ways. For example, some agencies rate vehicle safety based on a cares ability to keep its passengers safe in an accident and can rate vehicles by their ability to withstand head on collisions, side collisions, roll overs, collision with a tree or pole, and so on. Increasingly, an important aspect of a vehicles safety is the probability of avoiding an accident altogether while driving that vehicle. This can include handling, roll over resistance, and driver assistance features like automatic braking and blind spot detectors.
Where collision safety is concerned, the current list of leaders is dominated by Toyota, Kia, Hyundai, and Subaru, all of which have multiple vehicles on the list and high driver and passenger safety ratings.
Most manufacturers now offer vehicles with advanced safety systems, or driver assistance. Automatic braking, collision warning features, lane centering capability, and blind spot detectors are a few functions of these systems. While some vehicles simply alert the driver when it detects an imminent issue, others are on the verge of practically driving themselves. Manufactures such as Tesla, Mercedes, and Lexus often boast some of the most advanced systems on the market.
Whatever you drive, maintenance is another important aspect of vehicle safety. A car is only as safe as it is roadworthy. By keeping your tires, brakes, suspension, engine, and transmission reliable, you are dramatically decreasing your chances of having an accident.
